These basic silicone rubber finger prosthetics are designed by the artist, EBL, for keyboard use and light wear. The short prosthetic fingertip ends just above the proximal interphalangeal joint. It is filled solid from the top of the prosthetic to the bottom of the nail and the rest is hollow, so if you are missing just the nail area of your finger, this is the one to choose (see reference drawing)

The Louise collection is modeled from a woman in her early 30's. Your finger must measure the same as the corresponding prosthetic in order to fit properly and create the suction needed to keep the prosthetic in place (measurements listed below). These flex-fit, high quality prosthetics are made with a very thin and stretchy bottom edge for seamless transition onto the skin. The "basic" prosthetic is an affordable, unpainted option that comes in solid colors. An acrylic nail is permanently adhered and can be painted with nail polish.

Please allow 5-6 business days for this to be made especially for you.Each prosthetic is treated as an individual work of art and is handmade by the fine artist, EBL, in her home studio in the foothills of New England.
